The incidence of PED ranges from 2% to 50%, with a peak occurring 5-15 minutes after emergence from anesthesia. PED seriously endangers pediatric patient safety and impairs family experience. Early recognition can guide prophylactic interventions to reduce its incidence. This study aims to develop machine learning models with high accuracy and interpretability for personalized risk prediction, so as to improve perioperative safety and expand the application of artificial intelligence in pediatric anesthesia, thereby yielding substantial clinical and social benefits.
Eligible children were aged 3 to 12 years, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia with ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅱ, and had complete perioperative documentation including preoperative assessment, anesthesia records and PACU PAED scores.
Inclusion Criteria:(1) Aged 3-12 years; (2) Elective surgery under general anesthesia; (3) Ⅰ-Ⅱ; (4) Complete perioperative records (preoperative assessment, anesthesia record, PAED scale score in PACU, etc.).
-
Exclusion Criteria:(1) History of severe neuropsychiatric disorders or cognitive impairment; (2) Unavailable data due to anesthesia-related or perioperative complications; (3) Missing key variables or refusal of data utilization; (4) Previous history of pediatric emergence delirium; (5) Other anesthetic complications.

Pediatric emergence delirium will be assessed using the PAED scale at scheduled time points after general anesthesia. The scale evaluation is performed by trained investigators to identify the incidence and severity of emergence delirium
Pediatric emergence delirium
Time frame: Emergence delirium typically occurs 15-30 minutes after discontinuation of general anesthesia, with the latest onset up to 45 minutes. Assessment using the PAED scale will be performed at 15, 30 and 45 minutes after anesthesia cessation in PACU.
Ran from Feb 2026 to primary completion in Sep 2026, 7 months.
Of 180 non-industry observational studies under Emergence Delirium, half reached primary completion within 21 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 43. This study's 7 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 180 studies reached it within 21 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 43.
